Abstract

A new method for information hiding in Open Social Networks named SocialStegDisc was designed as an application of the StegHash method by applying the theory of filesystems. The mechanism of a linked list was added into the design to provide the set of basic operations on files: creation, reading, deletion and modification. It establishes a new kind of mass-storage characterized by unlimited data space. SocialStegDisc optimizes the operation of the original version of StegHash by a trade-off between the memory requirements and computation time. Features, limitations and opportunities were discussed. The proposed system could create a completely new area of threats in social networks.
